PC World posted a news story that the Kinect hack that surfaced days ago has enthusiasts exultant, and Microsoft's not happy, leading the company to deny their motion-sensor's been hacked at all.

Martin took up a challenge issued by Adafruit Industries to uncork Kinect's mysterious motion-tracking mojo for the masses. The prize? $3,000, an amount Adafruit bumped twice from $1,000. Adafruit, run by two MIT alums, calls itself "a New York City based company that sells kits and parts for original, open source hardware electronics projects."
